Wanted to get this crossing because of it's bell combo and since it's a UP owned crossing with GS LEDs on the cantilevers overheads. It's rare to find UPRR owned GS LEDs Lights. I was in the Bay Area for a couple of days and got a couple of crossings. This crossing is an SPRR 1980s signal build install with changes to the left signals bell if it isn't the a original, changes to both signals lights, and gates also since installed. I caught Amtrak #728 coming into the Fremont Centerville Station catching the Nathan P5 Cabcar number 8306 once again leading a train. The train didn't fully clear the crossing when it stopped at the station which is why it stays active.
Amtrak California Capitol Corridor #728 passes through the Fremont Boulevard railroad crossing eastbound on the UPRR Niles Subdivision main line arriving at the Fremont/Centerville Station in Fremont, California.
